Support for KOTLIN programming language
Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference and it's Google’s preferred language for Android app development since 7 May 2019
Kotlin mainly targets the JVM, but also compiles to JavaScript or native code (via LLVM), and it's an alternative to the standard Java compiler.
Kotlin is officially supported by Google for mobile development on Android.
As Kotlin is becoming a widely adopted programming language, Kiuwan now incorporates support to analyze Kotlin source files, thus searching for code and desing conditions that are indicative of security vulnerabilities.

Kiuwan provides 61 Security Rules specifically suited to Scala programming language. |
You can find these rules going to Models Management, select CQM and search for Rules applying to Kotlin language
Added Support for RM/COBOL dialect in COBOL technology.

All versions between 9.x to 12.16 (latest version at the moment of writing this post) have been succesfully tested.
Current list of supported Cobol dialects:
- Cobol85,

- Enterprise Cobol for z/OS v5,
- ILE Cobol 5,
- MicroFocus Cobol NetExpress 5,

Duplicated Code rules are not longer mandatory
When creating a new model, it was mandatory to activate duplicated code rules (i.e. rules that check for repeated blocks in source code).
This new Kiuwan release no longer forces duplicated code rules to be activated in your custom model.
